Dear Arthur,
Twenty-eight high school students had a very
successful trip to MUNUC (the Model United
Nations of the University of Chicago); eighth grade
students are hard at work preparing for their sessions
beginning in March, and we have a new poll regarding
the U.N., the U.S., and the current conflict between
the two.
In addition to reading our newsletters, you may also
want to visit our
web site by clicking here. We have a good deal of
current information, and through the year we will be
working on building up our archives from previous
years.

This year's high school Frivolous Model U.N. is this
Saturday, February 15 from 9:00 AM - 11:00 AM at
Crossroads School. It is a time to drop everything
serious and go for the absurd. With our delegates, this
shouldn't be too difficult.
